Alien Money Box



On our quest for things to upcycle, year 3/4 are also going to make money boxes from the infants' daily plastic milk bottles.     



We're using a decopatch type method.  

All you need is a small plastic pot, tissue paper, glue, bits and pieces to decorate.



Only two steps really:

Firstly, I've applied small pieces of tissue paper with a mix of PVA and water. There needs to be at least two layers. 



Once the glue has dried decorate your money box. We're making alien money boxes to go with our space theme, so I've made a crazy card mouth, antennae with pipe cleaners and foam (piercing the pipe cleaners through the soft plastic cap) and given him one oversized googly eye!
